Libtalker Ed Schultz told his radio listeners Tuesday that he&#39;s a defendant in a federal lawsuit filed by an NBC engineer who alleges he helped get Schultz on television -- a man who Schultz claims has stalked Schultz and his wife.</p>
<p>
Schultz began the second hour of his nationally syndicated radio show describing the lawsuit filed by Michael Queen, who is described in a press release issued by his lawyer as an NBC broadcast engineer, labor official and Schultz&#39;s &quot;former partner.&quot; Schultz is labeled a &quot;self-proclaimed champion of labor unions and workers&#39; rights.&quot;<br />
<br />
Queen is represented by attorney Mark Lane, author of two well-known books on the JFK assassination, &quot;Rush to Judgment&quot; and &quot;Plausible Denial.&quot;<br />
<br />
According to the <a href="http://financial.businessinsider.com/siliconalleymedia.clusterstock/news/read?GUID=18415763">press release</a>, Queen approached the late NBC Washington bureau chief Tim Russert to suggest Schultz for a television show, followed by Queen suggesting this to Schultz in January 2008. The press release claims that &quot;Meet the Press&quot; and &quot;Today&quot; show director Max Schindler joined the effort, &quot;only to quit shortly thereafter, citing ethical differences with Schultz.&quot; The press release further states <strong>(audio of Schultz remarks after page break)</strong> --</p>
